Starting aid terminals
Connecting order
Connect the jumper cables in the correct order; otherwise, there is the danger of injury from sparking.
The so-called starting aid terminal in the engine compartment acts as the battery's positive terminal.
Open the cover of the starting aid terminal.
The body ground or a special nut acts as the negative terminal.
